Days 405 - 406 Sick little girl

To say the last couple of days have been difficult is the understatement of the year! Mikayla has been very unhappy. Yesterday we took her to the pediatrician after having a pretty hectic night... And he basically just said it was congestion,- it was viral, and we would have to wait it out. Well, last night she was horrific. Waking often, not wanting to feed, very bunged up, etc. So we took her to the doctor today (both pediatricians, plus both docs had I previously seen were ALL not around!! How's that for luck?)

Anyway, he basically said that it's an infection, and is in her right lung. She is now on a medley of medicine, including antibiotics. My worry is that she is so clogged up.. She won't eat, and is vomitting up feeds we give her in her peg. She cried for 8 1/2 hours solid today. She won't sleep, even though her poor little body is completely exhausted from all the coughing, sneezing and wheezing!

Not sure what night we'll have.... All I can say is that I HATE seeing her suffer like this. It is so very very wrong!
